Beat me to it. I would have a picture but I thought that it was just one of the usual Preston allocated ALX300s until I realised the fleet number when it got closer to me. Is this a permanent allocation to Preston or a short term loan?

Hi
Interesting Megabus liveried interurban 52310 over the pits at Willowholme this afternoon with 47019 PO51WLJ rubbed down ready for paint in the wash plant. Reays also have additional unbranded MCV on city hopper service registration YJ60 GDO

17017 was pulled from 31, replaced by 16733.
16184 and 20994 also on 30/31.

20436 has had its rear display painted over, and the side box removed (side unit was removed before it was transferred to LL, but the box left in place).
20994 has had its rear display removed, may have had the side removed too, didn't notice. The sticker on rear window is still there from where the display unit was.

The result of getting in 4 MCV's for routes just weeks before increasing the PVR on 63/63A to 5. Resulted in a Primo being re-branded for 63A, now the new MCV will be branded up for it.

Rumour that is is replacing 34218 at Lillyhall, but we'll see. I'd much rather have 34218!

MANs fit fine in Ingleton shed thanks to a B series National being in residence rather than the Leopard.
22116 and 22135 were fetched up from Hyde Rd this am
22101 22118 and 22159 left for Wales

Any idea where in Wales the MANs are going Gez? My initial thought was Merthyr, but now I'm not so sure...

How long before the Leopard returns to Ingleton and things go 'mammary glands inverted'? :P

Any idea where MEs B10s are gonna end up when the E300s are launched into service tomorrow?

Err...Wigley's? Fleetlink may have a few, and Ensign for the outside possibility. Given the amount of spares currently sat around, I can't see there being any future for them in Stagecoach.

24122 in MAN tonight while 34221 has ended up back on the pit.

There is a ALX300 due from Morecambe either tonight or tommorow morning for onward transfer to Dumfries. I presume this is the on ethat broke down en-route from Manchester.

52414 is up for MOT and will likely be getting converted after one would hope.

Gez is indeed correct in saying that all B10M and B10L are going, Chorley's will be dissapearing or not in use from July/August, all is TBC on the Oly front altho it is going to be trident replacement.

Glad to see I'm not the only one sad to see 14235 going. Was always a good'un, even if slightly confused of its identity at times (Did it belong to Kendal or Morecambe? :P)

Lancaster's new E300s were launched outside Lancaster Uni's new sport centre this morning. 5 E300s were present, 4 of which had 3/4 on the blinds and the fifth showing "Investing in Lancaster" or something similar. A Ribble preservation vehicle was also present and took guests at the launch on a tour around campus.

Later this afternoon the 5 E300s will go into service replacing MANs at South West Campus.

9 will go into service tomorrow as two more still need branding and ME are still expecting the delivery of the last one.

Also noticed as one went past me that window branding has been added to the left sides showing "Working in Partnership with Lancaster University"

Also was told this afternoon that the two MANs that came up from Manchester are for ME. I’m guessing maybe for the X12 in Aug? If they are hopefully they’ll get the whole refurb treatment lol.
